The Cercle Solvay
has been created as a real company.
Its directors and committee members
are elected after an American-style
electoral campaign. 1997-8 turnover
was just under € 400,000 (BEF
15 million).
The Cercle Solvay
has a number of departments, each
with its own responsibilities:
a) The aim of
the Solvay Help Group (GES) is to provide
students with support in their studies.
The group publishes course notes and
corrections for exercises and exams.
b) The Ball and
Events Committee takes care of evening events,
including the “Orange Ball”,
attended in 1997 by over 1,800 people!
c) The European
Comic Book Library is one of the best stocked
in the country, with more than 5,000
works, published in several languages.
d) The Travel
Committee organises excursions and winter sports.
e) The Solvay
Revue is responsible for putting on an unforgettable
show, every two years, featuring caricatures
of the teaching staff.
f) The Solvay
Student Jobs Committee helps students to find
work experience and student jobs,
acting as an on-campus coordination
centre with companies.
g) The Cercle also
has its own bar, publication (The
Caducée) and it publishes a
Student Book, giving details of the
students and teaching staff, and the
Year Book, which summarises the year’s
activities.
The role of the Solvay
Student Office (BE) is to:
a) Provide appropriate representation
for Solvay Business School students
within the various School bodies,
including the administrative office,
the Council and the various section
and faculty committees (teaching,
finance or the committee of the ILVP
for instance);
b) Encourage change
and development! We can mention here
reform of the language courses, for
which some of our previous delegates
campaigned so hard, the recent extension
of the courses in general culture
in the Master’s programme and
the forthcoming opening of computer
rooms that will be available to all
students in the faculty;
c) Communicate changes
and reforms introduced into the
School;
d) Participate in
the life of BESOCO, the Student
Office
of the SOCO faculty.
